As the sun dipped behind the hills of Lombok, our WhatsApp notification chimed with a message that would soon become a memorable journey. Vaishna, a solo traveler from Malaysia, reached out to us with a simple yet exciting request: “Hi Lombok Boat, I would like to know about the private speedboat transfer service between Lombok and the Gili Islands.” Her adventure was about to begin, and we were thrilled to be her trusted guide from the moment she landed at Lombok Airport to her arrival on the sparkling shores of Gili Trawangan. With her internet already sorted and only a single backpack in tow, Vaishna’s story is a perfect example of how seamless, flexible, and enjoyable a transfer with LombokBoat.com can be for modern travelers who stay connected on the go.
From WhatsApp Inquiry to Confirmed Booking: A Seamless Start
Our journey with Vaishna began with a friendly chat. We always strive to make our communication clear and personal, so after her initial inquiry, we responded promptly:
“Hi good morning, thank you for contacting us. May we know for when? Where is your destination?”
Vaishna replied, “Hi! I’m arriving in Praya at 6pm on Wed. My destination is Gili T.”
We double-checked her flight details to ensure everything would run smoothly. “May we know your flight number, please? Your trip is on 3 Dec, right? How many people?”
She confirmed, “Air Asia 462. Yess. Just 1.”
With all the details in hand, we outlined the package: a private car from Lombok Airport to Teluk Nare, followed by a private speedboat to Gili Trawangan. We provided a clear breakdown of what was included and reassured her that she could take her time to finalize her return ticket. Our flexibility and patience helped Vaishna feel at ease, and she soon confirmed her booking.

Once Vaishna was ready, we sent her a secure payment link and requested her email address for the booking confirmation. She completed the payment without any hassle and received a detailed itinerary:

We made sure to reconfirm all details the day before her arrival, asking for a photo to help our driver recognize her easily. Knowing that Vaishna would have internet access upon arrival, we reassured her that staying in touch would be effortless, even if there were any last-minute changes.
Travel Day: Flexibility and Real-Time Support
On the day of her journey, Vaishna’s flight from Kuala Lumpur was delayed. She kept us updated via WhatsApp: “Hi my flight has delayed from KL. It departs at 3.45 not 3.”
We responded promptly, “Hello thanks for let us to know, may I know your estimation arrival in LOP?”
“6.45,” she replied.
“Ok thank you, please keep contact with us, and we will update to our driver.”
Our team immediately coordinated with the driver, ensuring he would be ready at the new arrival time. We believe that travel should be stress-free, so we always adapt to our customers’ needs, especially when unexpected delays occur. When Vaishna landed, she messaged, “Hi just landed.”
We replied, “That okay miss, no problem.”
Her gratitude was clear: “Thank you so sorry. The delay was unexpected.”
We assured her, “You are welcome.”
